Ap- proaching elections or the possibility of a change in the personnel of coun- cil or committees should not be al- lowed to attention to the city business. Councilman Hart's resolution have the boards get the salary mat- ter in shape at once and report to the estimates keeping made by the com- forget their council and interrupt to salary committee within the appropriations the city meeting board, and to have the salary committee get the salarie of others not included in those appro- priations in shape without any “va- cation” in preparation for or because of the approaching election, was properly adopted. There is no rea- son for the city to waste the study already given to the matter by the _present boards and the salary com- mittee and the common council mere- ly because there may be changes in these bodies. The results of this study should be preserved and made use of for whatever the council, when the matter up for final de- termination, deems it worth. There should be something concrete to vote upon when the salary matter is de- cided. No time should be lost in be- ginning work formulating that concrete thing to be adopted or re- jected as the council sees fit; no light already thrown on the matter should be hidden. There should be no quibbling over the slight error in the resolution as finally adopted. Owing probably to an oversight the resolution now pro- vides that the boards report to the salary committee in two weeks, bring- ing the salaries within the appropria- tions. Also that the salary commit- tee report to the council on “other’ salaries, namely those not reported to the salary committee by the boards. There is no provision that the salary committee report to the council the salaries reported on to it by the comes in on boards.

The Legion's Issues Its Own (New Haven Journal-Courier) The American Legion is suffering from growing pains but there is no reason why to thesc should be added the discomfort and unrest of politics.
